Britain: More than 1.83 lakh new cases were reported in Britain on Wednesday, which is a record so far. At the same time, 57 patients died. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has appealed to the people to celebrate the new year with caution. He said that still there are many doctors in the hospitals who have not got booster dose.

WHO Chief Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said that there will be such a tsunami of Delta and Omicron variants that the health system will reach the brink of destruction. Tedros said, ‘The health system around the world is similarly working beyond its capabilities. After this, both threats like Delta and Omicron will take the infection figure to a record high. This will increase hospitalization and deaths.’
However, the WHO has expressed hope that the world will overtake this epidemic by next year.
WHO said about Omicron that the risk related to it is very high. In terms of transition, it has left behind the Delta variant. Its cases are doubling in 2 to 3 days.
